Inspirational Young Doctors

Three of the Bubup Doctors from Melbourne

It’s the start of the season for graduations and we are pleased that over 120 enthusiastic, trained Young Doctors will join the more than 600 other Young Doctors who have graduated in four states and two territories. Together they keep making a real difference in their community and their parents, Elders, leaders, Uncles and Aunties and school mates are proud of them all.

YOUNG DOCTORS
Young Doctors is a health leadership program which trains Indigenous and Non-indigenous young people to be health ambassadors in their communities. It is designed and run by local Elders, respected community members and supported by health workers in each location. The program teaches leadership, hygiene, health literacy, nutrition and environmental health. This year about 400 Young Doctors will be trained in NSW, Victoria, South Australia and Queensland. The project is entirely funded by generous private foundations, corporations and individuals
